Besucher Vier: The Eaglemans

Howdy! So, a lot’s been happening lately on this side of the pond. I’ve been joking that this summer I started my own business—Erin Eagleman’s Tour Guides—which really isn’t that far from the truth.

Happy Swiss National Day

This weekend we, along with over 100,000 other locals, expats and vacationers, had the pleasure of celebrating Switzerland’s National Day.
